Why is it a good idea to pay off credit card debt with a loan?

Like any other service, financial institutions charge interest in exchange for personal loans, but in many cases they tend to have lower rates available than other products such as credit cards. The average annual percentage rate (APR) on a personal loan is only 9% compared to average rates on a credit card of around 14%, according to data from the Federal Reserve.

The loans have the characteristic of being an installment loan, that is, you pay the same amount every month until the loan is paid off. As CNBC mentions, knowing the exact amount you have to pay monthly can make budgeting easier, whereas with a balance transfer card, you need to set up your own payment plan. And if you don’t pay off your balance before the introductory period ends, you’ll be hit by high interest rates.

That is why we present you the 5 best loans to refinance your credit card debt.
